British Army uses AI engine in Estonia's live-firing drill

#artificialintelligence

The 20th Armoured Infantry Brigade of the British Army has used artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time during a live-firing drill in Estonia. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) said that soldiers used an AI engine, which provides information on the surrounding environment and terrain, during Exercise Spring Storm, as part of Operation Cabrit. This AI engine could rapidly cut through masses of complex data, by significant automation and smart analytics development. It enables the Army to plan its appropriate activity and outputs by providing information regarding the environment and terrain. British Army Information Director major general Jonathan Cole said: "The deployment was a first of its kind for the Army. It built on close collaboration between the MOD and industry partners that developed AI specifically designed for the way the Army is trained to operate.
